branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/2020.08.x
The commit 05fea6e4a60a38a797d9bacbf318a2cd7dbd435f "infra/pkg-kconfig:
do not rely on package's .config as a timestamp" broke the kernel
version check of this linux-backports package (it was no longer
executed). Since linux-4.19, the kernel's build system internally
touches its .config file, so it can no longer be used as a stamp file.
The stamp file defined in KCONFIG_STAMP_DOTCONFIG variable of
pkg-kconfig infra need to be used instead.
This commit fixes the kernel version check.
